First of all, I’d like to ask this question;
In the kingdom of God, is there any form of discrimination?
Let’s ask ourselves this question too.
God is love, a very ambiguous way to describe an entity. But it is simply the truth. There are many instances in the Bible where God showed that love is his true nature. Romans 5:8, “But God commanded his love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
This is the only law we have been given, the number one rule of living as believers – TO LOVE
He has never discriminated in any form; He has no preference whatsoever because we are all His children alike.
Now, the general notion about poverty and its association with Christians or believers in our society today is generally not true.
Just like I said in my previous post, God’s love is shared abroad to all men and women no matter who you are.
The principles of success from the Bible applies to all men.
Gone are the days when we have to think that we are poor because we are Christians and then others are rich because of the bad deeds they do or because they are not believers.
When Christ came to redeem us, he never mentioned that the love of the father was for a set of persons only, no!
That’s why He is the father, the father of creation, the father of benevolence.
Personally, I believe that we all as humans have been given equal rights and opportunities in life to succeed and fulfill purpose. The choices we make are what determine whether we get to be successful or not.
In essence, I am trying to let us understand that the Christian life is a productive life.
Being a Believer doesn’t mean you will be poor and it also doesn’t mean you will be rich. The bottom line is that being a believer is a privilege and it adds an advantage.
As believers, the Bible says in Matthew 6:33, “seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and every other thing shall be added to you”
It’s as simple as it sounds. It isn’t hard at all because the simple thing you’ve got to do is simply live the LIFE OF LOVE for love covers all things.
Most of the Bible heroes we know, the likes of Abraham, king David, Solomon, the disciples of Jesus, they were all great men who never lacked and the love and resilience the exhibited as believers enabled them live a productive life.
So let’s all start understanding what the Christian life (the life of a believer) is all about so that we can live very PRODUCTIVE lives as Christians.
